New Shades

Last Christmas my folks gave us some money to purchase shades for our windows, we finally got around to spending some of that money. We purchased shades for our basement and bedroom, because Menards was having a 51% off sale on Levolor shades.

If you haven't noticed shades are stupid expensive, so we were pretty happy to find these at a decent price. The only issue is that the middle window is 5 feet wide, so there is quite a bit of weight on the strings. They have worked fine, but I worry about that a bit.

We ordered 5 shades at 36" wide (60" tall I think) and 2 at 60" wide. We wish we had ordered for the middle floor as well, since they are working pretty well. We paid $61 for the 3 footers and just under $100 for the 5 footers, $539.62 all together.
